Math question, of sorts.....okay not really

Lets put it this way...
I was born in '87, which obviously makes me 22 years old.
A relative of mine was born in '77, which makes them 10 years older than me, therefore, they are 32 no matter what time of year, to get to each it's a difference of 10.

Am I right so far? (((haha)))

Now, I go to wish the person a Happy Birthday and they say "Yeah, I'm 33, I'm getting up there....."

I don't want to call them a liar considering the obvious that they obviously should know how old they are, but it's hard to ignore when I'm 10 years younger and obviously know my age which helps me remeber their age......

So my thought process is correct right?

It's thrown me for a loop, I even considered the "month" could turn it around but that obviously doesn't work, the person is 32, not 33.

Which is where I get confused, how don't you know how many years you've been alive?

 

Ah well love 'em nonetheless

  • Your math and your reasoning sound good to me, all it means to me is I'm getting old! You were born in '87 and I graduated from high school in '87.

  • Aww I'm sorry haha : (

    Me&Mr.T - My b-day is 3.23.87 and my relative's is 7.8.77

    ***so it's a little less than 10 years but by exact year was how I figured***

  • Are you sure she wasn't born in '76? I would think that she would know her age.

  • I was born in Feb of 1977 and I'm 32. 
  • Positive. The birthday on their page is '77 and i've always heard family say that they were a day off of having straight 7's for their birthday.
  • Hmm maybe it was a typo (at least I hope so!).

  • I hope so too haha, but I've seen this person type lol. I'm not poking fun but still....it's the hunt and peck method so I'd hope it would have been caught....I asked though in case somebody else isn't kind enough to be well nice about it.
  • Weird! Dh's bday is 6/10/77 and he's 32......maybe this person just likes the double digits? (33)
